yvot, what did you go to Staples for? I love office supply stores.

combos candy sharpies as seen on tv foot scrubber flamin hot cheetos postits

I was trying to watch read that while watching TV and it wasn't making sense b/c I kept wondering if there were actually such things as Cheetos-branded Post-Its candy Sharpies.

at staples anything can happen

As part of some changes at my office, I was going to be relieved of the task of ordering office supplies, but I held onto it b/c it's a fun and easy chore. Plus I have authority to order pretty much anything I want , so we're always getting fun stuff. Pre-hole-punched paper is the best thing ever invented.

this guy has been yelling at his wife through the window of her car for like half an hour now. they are double parked outside my window.

"i have not prostated myself enough for you, Janel?!"

sometimes when i hear people arguing i want to join in, it stems from growing up in a large catholic family where any small disagreement could erupt into an exhilirating free for all.

*exhilarating

haha - your family sounds fun!

I feel like yelling out the window, "Dump his ass, Janel!"

either Janel must be very patient and forgiving, or she must feel horribly guilty and is perhaps a more aggravating person than her vituperative spouse

i recognise the situation but not the sentiment

i'm far more with you than not, i completely refuse to join in on the family ones these days, but overheard trouble is still alluring to me.

other people's arguments are great fun, i can always think of snappy comebacks for them but am never sure would that type of coaching be appreciated or not

i think you are sure really.

-grabbed the handle of a pan that had just been in the oven 5 minutes ago

-fuuuuuuuuuck

Ahhhh that is the worst! Actually, the worst is taking a hit pan out of the oven, not telling Jeff, and then he grabs the handle. Guilt!!!

Anyway, protip: drape a hot pad over the handle as a note to self/others that it's hot. Also I hope you are okay!

yeah it was for less than a second, no blisters and only mild lingering pain atm - thanks for the concern tho!

Okay, good.

One time I picked up a hot pan off the dinner table and then yelled at my mom for not telling me it just came out of the oven. The next night everything on the table – serving bowls, pots and pans, glasses, plates – had a post-it note with her handwriting on it indicating its temperature:
HOT
COLD
LUKEWARM
ROOM TEMPERATURE

hahaha

need a "Mom Zings" thread

My mom is the zing master.

lol

my dad has announced that he's thinking of changing his marital status next year, just all casual like

Haha.

Tonight I was making a grilled sandwich in a cast iron skillet and I stepped away from it to get the Blu Ray player warmed up(Netflix streamin takes forever to load) and got sucked into fixing a problem with the ethernet cable.

Later I was reading some article online when the smoke alarm starting bleeting. When I looked up, the kitchen and living room were thick with smoke and my sandwich was charcoal. And it was hard to find the fucking smoke detector. It is tucked behind a light fixture outside the bathroom.

"haha" is an xp re the zings, obviously!

- had to choose between The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant and Frankenhooker on TV
- wd probly have been better off with Frankenhooker all things considered

frankenhooker looked awesome but i was votoed h8 these fuckers so much

bet jjjusten has seen it

i've seen it! but not for a long time. it's great, like all of Frank Henenlotter's movies

well i mean how could it not be, i read the synopsis

begins with a fatal lawnmower accident iirc

I meant to say that the reason I smell the burning sandwich that filled the room I was in with smoke for like 5 minutes was that I have no sense of smell.

Wanted to clear up that hole. Thx.

eh, no, i think you have that mixed up with 'amadeus'? xp

matt stafford looks 16 and stoned

i love him!

lol sorry wrong thread

we love matt stafford on this thread too

:D

img search says he looks like andy samberg is that the guy?

he does kind of! i also love andy samberg tbh; not trying to hear ilx comedy nerds who hate him.

lol Jesse, I was going to say - that's pretty good evidence that your sense of smell, which I know you had recently said you might be getting back, is still gone.

- Just got last of my xmas shoppin' packages from Thinkgeek
- they have accidentally sent me two copies of Nintento Monopoly. Hahaha! I havent been charged wrongly, theyve stuffed up in my favour :D

oh god, of course, I am embarrased that didn't occur to me.

thread's been deindexed fwiw

I'm seriously dismayed at the orange-ness of the "red" paint I just put on one window-frame. Trying to decide whether to do 2nd coat and see if the color firms up, or just go back and buy a quart of another color. Damn.

HEY I JUST RE-HUNG MY SHOWER CURTAINS AND AM ABOUT TO USE THEM!!!!! First shower in over a week. Maybe 10 days??

I, er...

ah...should I confess this, or not? Well, here goes....

I've been taking a shower only once every 3-4 days for the last few months. And I sleep in my clothes. I need a job or a reason to meet with people regularly, quick, before I turn into Pigpen.
